A member asked:
What does global hypokiesis with mildly reduced systolic function of the left ventricle mean?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Global hypokinesis means the weak motion (contraction) of the whole (global) left ventricle, not a specific area of the left ventricle and that weak motion (contraction) results in reduced function of the left ventricle during the systolic (contraction) phase. In your case, the weak contraction is mild.
